I've hit the big time! Sort of.

I just found out that one of the photo's I've submitted to CNN.com travel photo gallery was posted on their gallery!   I can't tell you how excited this makes me.   Now, I realize this is for amateur photographers and I'm not being paid, and I didn't "win" a contest.  But, for me this is a very proud moment.   I know if my dad were still alive he would be proud of me.   He was a professional photographer and everything I've learned, I've learned from him.   This also has made me realize that you need to put yourself out there no matter what "out there" means to you.  Take a chance.  What's the worst that can happen?
